2nd Transylvanian Grand Prix
After flying to Bucharest we startet a nearly 3 hours drive to Brasov, right in the centre of Romania. We realized Brasov is located in the mountains. We went along winding roads, through dark ancient forests. You really could feel the tale of Bram Stoker. Brasov is a really very nice old town, proud of its old houses, churches and places inviting guests to have a coffee, relax and enjoy life. But also industry is growing. The only thing somebody can miss is an airport. But being located right in the mountains, this will probably be the reality for some more years. Nevertheless the governors of the city of Brasov are taking it under consideration and are planning it.
Dancers are enthusiastic ! Nothing is too difficult for them if they really want it. Some of the couples came by car after 10 to 14 hours drive.
The main event on the first day was the IDSF International Open Standard, which saw an entry of 55 couples. The audience saw very high quality dancing.
Clear winners in this category were Evgeny Moshenin and Genny Favero, ITA. Runners up Daniil Ulanov and Irina Gogoladze,RUS, in 3rd place Vadim Shurin and Anastasia Meshkova, RUS. The competition was broadcasted by National TV and visitors of the IDSF website will soon have the opportunity to see some of these clips.
On Sunday the IDSF International Open Latin took place. 55 couples entered and it promised to be very interesting until the very end. Three top couples were matching each other : 1st Valentin Voronov and Alina Imrekova, RUS, and 2nd Gabriele Pasquale Goffredo and Ana Matus, MOL, two top couples performing their own, very special style. In 3rd place Joel Lopez and Kristina Bespechnova, ESP, a very young and talented couple showed beautiful pure Latinamerican dancing.
